Vintage Georgia Shirts: Defunct Georgia Baseball Teams

Georgia's cities carried professional baseball from the 1880s onward. The Atlanta Pretzels played the city's first season in the Southern Association in 1902, under an owner generally credited with inventing the rain check. The Augusta Tourists sold an eighteen-year-old Ty Cobb to Detroit in August 1905. The Columbus Foxes, the Macon Peaches, and the Savannah Electrics filled out the circuits that ran from the fall line to the coast.

South Georgia was Georgia-Florida League country. From the late 1930s into the 1950s, the league kept professional baseball in the small cities below the fall line: the Albany Travelers, the Moultrie Packers, the Thomasville Tomcats, the Valdosta Trojans, and the Waycross Bears on the edge of the Okefenokee. Brunswick's Pirates brought the league to the coast.

Our vintage Georgia shirts honor these defunct clubs with original designs grounded in real research.
